[Break News Southern Gyeonggi = Siheung Reporter Lee Gwi-seon] Siheung City Corporation (CEO Jeong Dong-seon, hereinafter referred to as the Corporation) announced that it will expand the operating hours of public (indoor) swimming pools from January 2024 to manage citizen satisfaction, including promoting publicness.

While the corporation has been operating with a focus on safe and systematic management of sports facilities, starting in January 2024, it plans to switch to an operation that focuses on citizen convenience, such as improving citizen health, and operate it as an always-open swimming pool.

The main change is that the admission hours have been expanded even during the swimming pool facility inspection time, and the swimming pool has been reorganized so that any citizen can use the swimming pool at any time. The swimming pool can be used without a separate waiting time for admission, and the operation method has been adjusted to allow autonomous use.

As circulation is needed for smooth use by other citizens, the 2-hour autonomous use method, which includes use of the locker room, shower room, and swimming pool, is scheduled to be operated in the same manner as currently.

In addition, we are making efforts to promote publicness in various fields such as holding continuous meetings and CS competency strengthening training to ensure that citizens who use public sports facilities are satisfied.

President Jeong Dong-seon emphasized, “We are making efforts in various fields to create Siheung City by and for the citizens, and public sports facilities should be operated centered on citizens.” He also added, “To promote publicness, we will discover various fields to be trusted by citizens. “We will grow into a public institution,” he said.
